1104 A New History Says Goodbye to an Era

Aldridge showed off his habit of shielding his own people from the wind and rain. Instead of walking towards Ancelotti, he turned around and walked towards the field.

He knew that his move would be interpreted by the media as a humiliation to Ancelotti.

Because watching his actions from beginning to end, it is not difficult to find that he wanted to shake hands with Ancelotti at first, which is in line with his usual style, but he changed his mind halfway through. The media who like to make trouble will definitely be in the game.

Later, he implicitly criticized Aldrich. It wasn't that he didn't care, it was just that he was used to it. Just like when he stood up for his disciples, he could start a war with anyone. He was accustomed to the image of a "evil man".

It is not difficult for Aldridge to avoid embarrassing Ancelotti and fulfill his "retreat", but if Aldridge walks over and extends his hand, it will definitely be painful for Ancelotti.

Standing in the middle of the court, Aldridge saw the dejected looks of AC Milan players. It was hard to believe that AC Milan showed an extremely unwilling mood after the defeat, just like some players knelt down after Bayern Munich was reversed by Manchester United.

They slapped the turf and cried bitterly, but the AC Milan players did not have this kind of catharsis of grief!

It's more like they are experiencing a nightmare and haven't woken up yet. They don't know when the nightmare will end.

The stands are half sea water and half fire, while inside the stadium, there is heaven on one side and hell on the other!

Aldridge looked around at the Millwall players in the stadium. Whether they were running wildly to celebrate, whether they were hugging each other and singing in celebration, or whether they were talking happily and cheerfully, etc., they all showed a festive and positive side, and they were vigorous and uplifting.

All those who saw this scene could not question it, and even imagined that Millwall's future would suddenly turn dark.

Finally, his sight was fixed on the edge of the penalty area in his own half, where Southgate, Larsson, Nedved, Schneider, Bute, and Neal were chatting and laughing with their arms around each other's shoulders.

Aldrich's eyes were misty, as if an illusory picture appeared in his eyes.

That old photo has been brought to reality.

Real Madrid legend Gento squatted behind six Champions League trophies, smiling all over his face.

And beside him, the scene gradually overlapped with the current scene.

Southgate, Larsson, Nedved, But Schneider, and Neal emerged one after another.

Next to the "Little Ear Cup" in front of Gento, a new championship trophy gradually emerged.

Big ear cup!

One, two, three, four, five, six!

Six big ear cups!

Millwall's generation of meritorious players, six players are among the most glorious football history!

Tied with Gento to become the most indelible memory of the Champions League.

Aldridge immediately looked up at the sky, a sky filled with stars. Real Madrid, AC Milan, Millwall, the team logos of the three teams covered the sky in different directions.

Around their team logo, the twinkling stars became even more dazzling.

The same six stars, the three clubs are all six Champions League champions!

The pinnacle symbol of European football!

Aldrich closed his eyes. A voice echoed deep in his heart.

One step, one step, one step...

He is just one step away from creating a completely different history.

Gento will be kicked out of the first-ever historical picture. The emblems of AC Milan and Real Madrid will also become dim and shrink next to the Millwall Lion emblem.

The entire sky will be enveloped by the Crazy Lions team logo.

The whole earth will tremble under the feet of the mad lion!

...

The Mad Lions crowned their sixth Champions League crown!

The whole team returned to England for the championship celebrations. During these three days, Millwall held a grand parade to celebrate, there were team celebrations, and the media followed and reported the whole process.

Some of the photos taken after the game will undoubtedly go down in history, such as Nedved and Larsson making the "six" gesture in front of the championship trophy, and Henry and Ronaldinho making a slap gesture.

They have all become photos that have been widely reproduced by major media.

After three days of celebrations, Millwall has theoretically begun the team's summer break.

However, none of the players left London.

When May 31 comes, Millwall still has a grand event to take place at the Lion King Stadium.

Southgate’s retirement match and ceremony!

The day before that, Fleet Street paparazzi laid an ambush near the airport and had begun grandly covering Southgate's retirement ceremony.

Because, at the airport, there are many stars that the football circle pays attention to coming to London from all over Europe.

Pirlo, Gattuso, Materazzi, Gianluca Zambrotta, Thuram, Shevchenko, Trezeguet, and Vieira arrived from Italy one after another. They came to London non-stop just after the end of Serie A.

Capdevila, Herguera, and Vicente came from Spain.

Ballack and Klose came to England from Germany.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, Solskjaer, Pires, Phillips, Ferdinand, Lampard, Makelele and others who are playing in England are also preparing to participate in the celebrations at the Lion King Stadium.

There are also players from the England national team to help out, including Scholes, who has retired from the national team, and players such as Beckham, the Neville brothers, Owen, and Gerrard who are still in the national team.

There are a large number of players who have played for Millwall, as well as players who are now Millwall's main competitors and even their mortal enemies, Chelsea.

In fact, even Ashley Cole, a player with a reputation as a traitor, was officially invited by Millwall.

Now there are extreme fans who can hate Ashley Cole and reprimand Lampard and Makelele, but for Millwall, they cannot erase the fact that they were once their players. It has become history and cannot be changed.

Yes, it's just that some players are willing to come here to support Southgate, and some are not, such as Ashley Cole.

Perhaps he was afraid of being targeted by the Lions fans and ruining the atmosphere at that time. Regardless of the club's stance, Ashley Cole was once Southgate's close comrade in the national team, and they were on top of the world together.

, it’s hard to say that he hates Millwall, it’s just that he is too realistic. People who are too realistic will not get into trouble and act out of impulse.

May 31st, early morning.

When the morning sun shines into the room, the refreshing weather indicates that today will be a sunny day.

Yiwen was lying on the bed in his pajamas, holding his cheeks and looking at Aldrich who was looking in the mirror with a smile.

The little princess Bonnie, who was in the same pose as her mother, shook her head, her little feet swaying behind her, and her crescent-shaped eyes narrowed as she stared at Aldrich's back, looking particularly happy.

Aldrich nodded with satisfaction in front of the floor-length mirror, turned around, opened his hands and smiled: "How is it?"

Now he does not wear a suit and leather shoes, but wears a Millwall jersey, and the jersey number is No. 0...

Jersey, sneakers, socks, no shin guards.

This is a brand new jersey, the club just sent it to him yesterday.

Aldridge, who has maintained a healthy and reasonable lifestyle for many years, has maintained a good figure, especially through consistent exercise, so that even when he is 30 years old, he still has toned muscles.

After putting on the jersey, he does have the traditional image of a player, and he is a chic one.

Yiwen smiled and said nothing, while Bonnie praised: "Dad is so good-looking!"

Aldrich walked to the bed and squatted down, stretched out his finger and tapped the tip of her nose, and asked: "How about cheering for dad today?"

"Well, daddy is the best in the world!"

Just as Aldrich was immersed in unrealistic fantasies, there was an unpleasant sound coming from the door.

"Dad, are you sure you want to play today?"

Aldrich turned around and saw Earl leaning against the door with his arms crossed, a tangled expression on his face, as if Aldrich would be embarrassed to play football on the court!

Although Bert did not speak, he frowned slightly, probably in agreement with Earl.

They seem to have lost their "innocence" very early, at least they don't worship their father for no reason like Bonnie does, and they get rid of unrealistic fantasies.

Yes, Aldridge is the best coach in the world. Neither brother will question this and will firmly defend this conclusion.

If there are friends of the same age who slander Aldridge's coaching achievements, for example, one of Earl's classmates is a Chelsea fan, and they use belittle Aldridge to achieve the purpose of children attacking each other, Earl would not mind having a fight with this classmate, and even calling him

Let me educate this classmate with my fists and let him understand while crying: Aldridge is the best coach in the world. Under my or our fists, this is the truth that you must unconditionally agree with.

However, Aldridge goes on the field to play football, which has nothing to do with coaching ability. Aldridge's coaching achievements will not add even one point to his playing ability.

At least that's what they think.

Aldrich scoffed.

I often tell them that football is a team sport. As a person who spends more time reading and thinking about the game, even if his skills are average, uh, very amateur, he can still play better than the average person!

"Go, go, don't cause trouble for me. You are happy today, okay? Just cheer me on from the sidelines and watch your dad shine on the court!"

Bert and Earl curled their lips at the same time and did not make meaningless rebuttals. They had no intention of running away. Today, of course, they would go to the Lion King Stadium to witness Southgate's retirement. This is very special for Millwall.

meaning.

Aldridge did not take off his jersey, but just took off his sneakers, put on a suit, leather shoes, and tie. Then he had breakfast at home and drove the whole family to the Lion King Stadium.

Southgate's retirement ceremony will be held after noon, and there will be a party inside the club in the morning.

Players or celebrities who came from all over Europe gathered together to reminisce about the past, talk about the past, and lament the current situation. Especially seeing Southgate retire, it was very emotional and it was inevitable to feel a lot of emotion.
